"Recent pronouncements appear to indicate that the drug war will soon be reverted back to the PNP. So we may have to expect more blood to spill on our streets," ani Ma. Socorro Diokno, secretary general ng FLAG.

"You know this is what is very alarming, when the police believe that they can behave with impunity, when the police believe they can go anywhere, without uniform, they can just raid any place and they can just begin to shoot people," ani Diokno.

Saad ng bahagi ng pahayag ng NUJP: "The National Union of Journalists of the Philippines demands that PNP chief Ronald dela Rosa take back his utterly asinine and potentially dangerous insinuation that respected news agency Reuters may be in cahoot with drug syndicates in the release this week of a special report on the suspicious police killing of three men in Tondo, Manila in October."
